PARIS, AUGUST 3, NOYAN TAPAN – ARMENIANS TODAY. Prominent French
Armenian painter Zhansem’s (Hovhannes Semerjian) 40 canvases
were exhibited in June-July at the famous "Matignon" gallery of
Paris. According to the Istanbul "Marmara" daily, the canvases are
mainly new works. On the occasion of opening of the new exhibition
the Paris "World" newspaper wrote that the time goes, but the charm of
Zhansem’s art does not fade away. Dance and nature of Armenia became
a source for the painter’s inspiration. Three landscape paintings
on the Armenian theme were a pleasant surprise for visitors of the
exhibition. Those are a tribute of respect by the painter to his
native country, its nature. The "Walls" series of paintings also
took some place at the exhibition. During the exhibition days the
visitors were also able to watch an interesting video film dedicated
to Zhansem’s life and art. This last exhibition of Zhansem’s works
finished on July 29.
